This Town from This Town by Melissa Moshè

This Town
Written, performed and co-produced by Melissa Moshé (ASCAP 2017).

The road was dark and we couldn’t see
More than two feet in front of me

Tried to stop but curiosity
Kept pulling us to our destiny

And we fooled ourselves
Into thinking that it would be easy
And we found ourselves
In a town where no one seems to leave

Chorus:
This town just isn’t right for us
We’re stranger than the strangers
Even the outcasts point at us
This town just isn’t right for us
We were made to wander
And this town ain’t big enough

So many roads to choose
But we stumbled into this foreign land where
Neon signs flashing vacancy tries to lure us in
And we’ll try not to loose ourselves into their way of life
Because we can’t stop now
There’s only one way out

We’d rather walk for endless miles
Leave their world behind
Walk for endless miles
And find another way

We’d rather live our own way of life
Struggle through another night
Bite the hands that feed us
And salvage what remains

So we’ll keep on walking!

Chorus:
This town just isn’t right for us
We’re stranger than the strangers
Even the outcasts point at us
This town just isn’t right for us
We were made to wander
And this town ain’t big enough
